Tom Brady reveals his ‘definite’ favorite for NFL MVP entering final stretch of regular season

[ad_1]

As we enter Week 16 of the 2023 NFL season, two players from the San Francisco 49ers are among the favorites to win MVP: Quarterback Brock Purdy, and running back Christian McCaffrey. A non-quarterback hasn’t won NFL MVP since 2012, and sure enough, Purdy is the heavy favorite to win this year at -230, per Caesars Sportsbook. McCaffrey has the third-shortest odds at +550 behind Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (+525).

The star running back joined Tom Brady to talk ball on a recent episode of his “Let’s Go!” podcast, and the GOAT said that McCaffrey is “definitely” the MVP favorite in his opinion. 

“I remember the first time I actually got a glimpse of Christian was in the Rose Bowl,” Brady said, via NBC Sports. “He caught an angle pass against Iowa and ran for about a 75-yard touchdown. I was like, ‘Well, they’re not gonna catch him!’ … He was a dynamic player then. He is a dynamic player now, and I think all of what he’s done this year is a lot what he’s done in the past. It’s a different team with some different opportunities and they’ve been really dynamic on offense.”
